Pacific Dunes

Rankings

Golf Digest:  #18
Golfweek:  #2 Modern

See my Bandon Trails post for a more detailed description of this trip.  Pacific Dunes was the first track I played at Bandon, and I don't think I was really awake after my 3am arrival.  So I'm not sure I was paying very good attention.  Pacific is traditionally rated as the favorite of the four courses, but I didn't see much that made it better than the others except for overlooking the ocean on many holes.  I definitely need to play it again to see if I understand the excess hype on PD.  I'll keep the review short since the course was a bit of a blur, but all the courses at Bandon are special.  It's a perfect place to get away and do nothing but golf.  I loved the entire experience.
